I cannot narrow it to three - sorry. Damn its been so long since I've read ANY that I almost forget! Archer & Armstrong and Eternal Warrior are near the top, as are ... hell most of them! Magnus, Solar, Harbinger, X-O, Shadowman ... how do you choose?!

Solar
Tie Rai/Magnus
X-O Manowar

Well I guess that I would rate my top three as follows

3 Magnus
2 Rai
1 BLOODSHOT!!!

are you talking full run? or just through certain issues...'cause in my mind if you look at say the first 20 issues of a title or so it would be:

1. Harbinger
2. Solar
3. X-O

haven't read enough full runs (yet ) to make a decision on that...

i just meant generally, from commons i guess. cuz alot of us dont have any full runs.(just need three issues of bloodshot, and the VVSSs, and Golds)

Solar
Magnus
Archer and Armstrong (am I the only person who thought this title was really funny?)

I also thought the later title Timewalker had a lot of potential.

I did love the first 15 issues or so of A & A ...when did BWS leave...?

I had thought of putting it on my top 3 but it really went to Sh** towards the end...

After going through some of my collection, doing inventory, I left a lot earlier than I thought! Plenty after Unity, and a few months after the serial number contest it looks like I just stopped buying with 100% regularity.

Its been so long ago since I read them all (I read as they came out no doubt) I couldn't tell you which series were better or worse as they went on. I just remembered A&A being one of my favorites.

If memory serves, BWS took over almost every part of A&A until the very end, when he ended it stating that the book had no where else to go. If they had cycled the talent around that book, it might have fared better.

I spoke too soon, BWS ended his run with issue 12 and Mike Baron took over writing duties after that.

Magnus
Solar
Bloodshot

Bloodshot is the schnitz!

bloodshot

but im also a big fan of EW and AA. timewalker did have potential, im a pretty big of the immortal brothers....

Timewalker was indeed an unexpected good read. Had it come early in the Valiant history timeline, I think it would fit into many peoples favorite category as well. It just came out after the mass majority of people had given up hope on Valiant titles.

and it's not like mike baron is a poor writer...I really got into his nexus and badger stuff...it just didn't work as well for me with A & A and what BWS had laid down before...

(1) Harbinger: I LOVED the dynamic of this book. I often thought that ideas and situations they got in were badly written, but the makeup of the characters and what they were doing were great.
(2) Dr. Mirage: Title just kicked *SQUEE*.
(3) Archer and Armstrong: Again...kickass...especially those first twelve issues or so.

x-omatic · Post by **x-omatic** » Mon Feb 09, 2004 3:42 pm

Eternal Warrior
X-O
Harbinger (early Harbinger)

Magnus & Solar tied for 4th

My three favorite titles:

1) Magnus
2) Solar
3) Psi-Lords

Actually I'm kidding about the last one. My third favorite title is probably Turok. Great artwork through the whole run.

So far, I got the X-O TPB and liked it. I loved Alpha & Omega. And I'm coming to reading Magnus TPB and Rai TPB.
